Admin commands ?

Greetings! Can anyone tell me how to open the admin command console? It used to work by pressing the Tilde or Insert key, but for some reason, it’s not working for me in U5.

Seen a few reports on this. The common thread to the answers seems to be to switch to English keyboard settings.

Esc → Settings → Server → Administration → Make Me Admin
(that’s the button sequence in solo player games)

And like @DanQuixote said above, it assumes an English keyboard setting.

I’ve found a fix, at least a temporary one :

  • Close the game if it’s running

  • Edit the file that’s located here : \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\Windows\input.ini file

  • At the near-end of the file, there should be a section ‘[CurrentIniVersion]’

  • Add the following line right before said section :

[/script/engine.inputsettings]

ConsoleKeys=Insert

Open the game, press the Insert key, the console tab should open

If it’s not clear where to add the line, This is the content of my Input.ini file :

;METADATA=(Diff=true, UseCommands=true)

[/script/engine.inputsettings]
ConsoleKeys=Insert
ConsoleKeys=Tilde
ConsoleKeys=F10

[CurrentIniVersion]
Version=0

*(With this you can open the console with the tilde key, with insert or with F10)

It works fine and there’s no need to change the keyboard language to English.
